    For those of you who don't know, a Ditloid is a word puzzle in which a phrase or quote must be deduced from the numbers and abbreviated letters in the clue.
    Common words such as 'the', 'in', 'a', 'an', 'of', 'to', etc are not abbreviated.

    Eg: 24 H in a D = 24 hours in a day


    If you guess correctly you set the next one.
    I'll start:

    64 S on a C B
